The given complex ion is as follow,
[Ru (CN) (CO)₄]⁻
Where;
[ ] = Coordination Sphere
Ru = Central Metal Atom = <span>Ruthenium
CN = Cyanide Ligand
CO = Carbonyl Ligand
The charge on Ru is calculated as follow,
Ru + (CN) + (CO)</span>₄ = -1
Where;
-1 = overall charge on sphere
0 = Charge on neutral CO
-1 = Charge on CN
So, Putting values,
Ru + (-1) + (0)₄ = -1
Ru - 1 + 0 = -1
Ru - 1 = -1
Ru = -1 + 1
Ru = 0
Result:
<span>Oxidation state of the metal species in each complex [Ru(CN)(CO)</span>₄]⁻ is zero.
A refracting telescope uses convex lenses to gather a large amount of light and focus it onto a small area while a reflecting telescope the mirror instead of an objective lens they are also similar because like the lenses in a refracting telescope the mirror in a reflecting telescope focuses a large amount of light onto a small area.
